- premium: False
- source: Jean-Paul Sartre
- content: Have the courage to read this book."
- premium: False
- source: Conor Cruise O'Brien, Nation
- content: The value of The Wretched of the Earth [lies] in its relation to direct experience, in the perspective of the Algerian revolution. . . . Fanon forces his readers to see the Algerian revolution--and by analogy other contemporary revolutions--from the viewpoint of the rebels."
- premium: False
- source: Emile Capouya, Saturday Review
- content: The Wretched of the Earth is an explosion."
- premium: False
- source: Time
- content: This is not so much a book as a rock thrown through the window of the West. It is the Communist Manifesto or the Mein Kampf of the anticolonial revolution, and as such it is highly important for any Western reader who wants to understand the emotional force behind that revolution."
